You are approved!"

    Want recognition for being a great player? Play on an even playing field.
    Or it's like saying "Barry, you hit too many home runs so we've decided to remove the homerun from baseball to even the playing field. We're also going to level all salaries so that no one player makes more than another."

    ESPN headline news: Baseball on strike!

    Fact is players who make it to the majors do get better trainers, coaches and well everything than anyone else in baseball. You don't think a major league player gets better tools to perform his craft than the guy in AAA baseball? You do know MLB players use custom fitted bats right? Are they Aluminum? No cause everyone agree's they would break the game as well as the fear of ball off the bat speed for infielders. Bats require certain specs to be allowed but nearly any MLB player known for hitting is using a custom made bat designed for his specific swing. TBH I dont know if you could have used a worse sports analogy.

    Also funny you mention roids lol, primal brew, VW weakening items, temp items anyone.

    You also keep saying rewarding one person excludes content for someone else. This couldn't be further from the truth. Nothing anyone else has has ever excluded me from any content in game. In 8 years nothing anyone else had ever effected my ability to participate in content. My play time did. SE removed HNM. My skills did. I learned my jobs and became adept in how to use them.
